SUMMARY:Talisman-images Gather the Cosmos and Press it to Your Body
DESCRIPTION:Practiced in medieval Islamic and European cultures\, talismans were like apps that appealed to the planets and other powers to intercede into precise earthly problems. I argue that talismans intervene in the order of the universe by re-folding it\, a practice that relies on a conception of the universe as densely interconnected. In our seemingly disenchanted times\, I suggest\, it is still possible to re-fold the universe\, grasping the points of disparate histories and places and drawing them together. We see this at work in movies\, digital media works\, and objects. I will focus on the affective results using such media to connect from the body to the cosmos. \nLaura U. Marks works on media art and philosophy with an intercultural focus. Her most recent books are Hanan al-Cinema: Affections for the Moving Image (MIT\, 2015) and Enfoldment and Infinity: An Islamic Genealogy of New Media Art (MIT\, 2010). Marks programs experimental media art for venues around the world. With Dr. Azadeh Emadi she is a founding member of the Substantial Motion Research network. Dr. Marks is Grant Strate Professor in the School for the Contemporary Arts at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver. In fall 2018 she is a visiting professor in the Department of Visual and Environmental Studies at Harvard University.

SUMMARY:The Fog Medium: Visualizing and Engineering the Atmosphere
DESCRIPTION:Fogs are clouds that descend on earth. Clouds have\, in the past few years\, captured the attention of media scholars. From the metaphor of the cloud in cloud computing to the spread of microsensors embedded in our urban environment\, the current media conditions prompt us to reconsider the articulation of media and the natural milieu in a new light. This talk proposes to trace one political genealogy of artificial fog as medium\, paying particular attention to Japan and military science from World War II through the Cold War. \nLong before cloud computing and environmental sensors made it popular to talk about media as “atmospheric\,” literal clouds and fogs fascinated both scientists and artists. Focusing on the work of Japanese environmental artist Nakaya Fujiko and her father\, Nakaya Ukichirō’s scientific research on artificial snowflake and fog-dispersal first during the wartime period and then into the Cold War era\, this talk explores how the infrastructural conditions of cloud computing today are imbricated in the transpacific orbit of military research on weather control that binds two imperial nations: Japan and the United States. The talk also traces how this infrastructural history intersects with the emergence of environmental art practices\, which pioneered the artistic use of artificial fog\, rain\, and other micro-climates during the Cold War. \nYuriko Furuhata is Associate Professor and William Dawson Scholar of Cinema and Media History in the Department of East Asian Studies\, a faculty member of the World Cinemas Program\, and an associate member of the Department of Art History and Communication Studies. She is the author of Cinema of Actuality: Japanese Avant-Garde Filmmaking in the Season of Image Politics (Duke University Press\, 2013)\, which won the Best First Book Award from the Society of Cinema and Media Studies. She has published articles in journals such as Grey Room\, Screen\, and Animation and edited volumes\, such as Media Theory in Japan and Animating Film Theory. She is currently working on a book\, A Political Genealogy of Environmental Media.

SUMMARY:Thinking Cinema Lecture: “Thinking Like a Holy Girl: A Philosophy of Grandma's Bedroom"
DESCRIPTION:On Monday\, October 16\, the Committee for Film Studies will host the second lecture in its seven-part\, year-long Thinking Cinema series\, which structures vibrant encounters between leading film scholars and the Princeton community. Karen Redrobe\, University of Pennsylvania\, will deliver “Thinking Like a Holy Girl: A Philosophy of Grandma’s Bedroom.” \nAbstract\nIn recent years\, debates around the question of film auteurship have been reanimated within the context of discussions of global art cinema\, the festival circuit\, and the “global auteur.” Auteurs may have become more geographically diverse than before\, but have the always-controversial gender dynamics of auteurship also altered over time? What new criteria for inclusion in the auteur category have emerged in the 21st century\, and what are the new (and old) stakes involved in the employment of this term today? This paper will consider the state of contemporary auteur debates—and it’s not always pretty—in dialogue with the second film in Lucrecia Martel’s Salta trilogy\, The Holy Girl (2004). \nSpeaker\nKaren Redrobe (formerly Beckman) is the Elliot and Roslyn Jaffe Professor of Cinema and Modern Media and Chair of the Department of the History of Art at the University of Pennsylvania. She has also served as the Director of Penn’s Program in Cinema and Media Studies. She is the author of Vanishing Women: Magic\, Film and Feminism and Crash: Cinema and the Politics of Speed and Stasis\, and is now working on a new book\, Undead: Animation and the Contemporary Art of War. She has co-edited two volumes: Still Moving: Between Cinema and Photography\, with Jean Ma\, and On Writing with Photography\, with Liliane Weissberg. Redrobe is also the editor of Animating Film Theory\, which explores the history of film theory’s engagement with animation (and lack thereof). Between 2012 and 2015\, she served as Advisor to the Arts for Penn and in that capacity ran a three-year\, cross-campus arts initiative. For several years she served as a senior editor of the MIT journal Grey Room\, and she is now a member of its editorial board. She is also a member of the PMLA advisory board. At Penn\, she is a member of the graduate groups in English\, German\, and Comparative Literature; a board member for the Program in Gender\, Sexuality\, and Women’s Studies; and a faculty affiliate of the LGBT center. \nSponsored by the Committee for Film Studies and the Humanities Council’s David A. Gardner ’69 Magic Project.
